Southbound Train
Two Tons Of Steel
(Kevin Geil - Vivien Leigh, Big Bellied Records, 1999)
Loneliness has called my name
Tracked me down
Caused me lots of pain
Oh the days don't seem the same
Since loneliness called my name
She left me on a southbound train
Packed her suitcase, I cried in vain
And as I asked for one chance more
The engineer said all aboard
[Chorus]
For the lonely ones
All aboard for loves discarded ones
It's a one way ticket friends
Where the heartache never ends
All aboard
The steam filled the southern sky
It enveloped me as I said goodbye
Then the steam turned to rain
The one I love is on that southbound train
I followed those lonesome old tracks home
With every step my thoughts did roam
And as I lie awake in bed
Lonely echoes danced in my head
The steam filled the southern sky
It enveloped me as I said goodbye
And as I asked for one chance more
The engineer said all aboard
All aboard
All aboard
All aboard
